This new open-source software lets your bitcoin mining machines automatically use the extra energy from your solar panels. It adjusts in seconds, from about 1–3 kW per miner, so excess electricity can be converted into bitcoin instead of sold back to the grid cheaply.

@Schnitzel Thanks for sharing. We are also planning to bring the NOVA for solar surplus mining to the US:

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official The grid pays me $0.15/KWh, which is more than the most efficient BTC miners will achieve. And that's if I got them for free. So, no thank you.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official selling extra solar power back to the grid for basically nothing never made sense when a miner in the garage pays full price for every watt.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official @DocumentingBTC LOVE IT! ;-)

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official This and the battery space are where DIYer and preppers will go

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Energy innovation meets Bitcoin. ⚡₿🌞

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Nice — turning otherwise wasted electrons into bitcoin at grid parity changes the home mining math significantly.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Solar → miner curtailment loops are the actual grid story of 2026. Selling excess back for pennies was always the dumb trade ☕

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official @GreenTyler27

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Super cool

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official solar mining is the cleanest use of stranded energy. beats selling back to grid at 2 cents

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Auto adjustments cycle miners hard. Hardware lifespan decides if it pays.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Whats the price difference between hash payout and energy sale?

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official You can also use @exergy_'s Home Assitant integration to pick up @Braiins OS and simply program automatios yourself.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Turning excess solar into bitcoin instead of selling it back to the grid for pennies is one of those ideas that sounds small and is not. Energy that was worthless becomes savings. This is the adoption story nobody charts.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Where can I get one of those machines

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Game changer for maximizing solar output. Turning unused energy into Bitcoin is way smarter than selling back.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Congratulation you just lost a whole room of your house because you need it for energy, we are moving towards the future indeed, now you just need to share you're children's bedroom with some immigrants.

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official @grok give us more details. What is the open-source software?

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Using available energy more intelligently could reshape parts of the mining industry

@Schnitzel @ry3t_official Smart idea, but solar panels peak when bitcoin difficulty is also high and prices move fast. By the time you adjust, the window might already be gone.

This is what Saylor meant by Bitcoin as digital energy stated in a compile target. The grid buys back your surplus at wholesale. The mempool buys it at market. Every home solar installation is now a nano-scale monetary energy converter. That is the base layer widening without changing.
